Abstract
Due to the potential applications in next-generation micro/nano electronic devices and functional materials, magnetic germanium (Ge)-based clusters are receiving increasing attention. In this work, we reported the structures, electronic and magnetic properties of CrMnGen with sizes n = 3-20. Transition metals (TMs) of Cr and Mn tend to stay together and be surrounded by Ge atoms. Small sized clusters with n ≤ 8 prefer to adopt bipyramid-based structures as the motifs with the excess Ge atoms absorbed on the surface. Starting from n = 9, the structure with one TM atom interior appears and persists until n = 16, and for larger sizes n = 17-20, the two TM atoms are full-encapsulated by Ge atoms to form endohedral structures. The Hirshfeld population analyses show that Cr atom always acts as the electron donor, while Mn atom is always the acceptor except for sizes 3 and 6. The average binding energies of these clusters increase with cluster size n, sharing a very similar trend as that of CrMnSin (n = 4-20) clusters, which indicates that it is favorable to form large-sized clusters. CrMnGen (n = 6, 13, 16, 19, and 20) clusters prefer to exhibit ferromagnetic Cr-Mn coupling, while the remaining clusters are ferrimagnetic.

Abstract
A series of pentagonal bipyramidal anionic germanium clusters doped with heavy rare earth elements,REGe 6 - (RE = Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb, and Lu), have been identified at the PBE0/def2-TZVP level using density functional theory (DFT). Our findings reveal that the centrally doped pentagonal ring structure demonstrates enhanced stability and heightened aromaticity due to its uniform bonding characteristics and a larger charge transfer region. Through natural population analysis and spin density diagrams, we observed a monotonic decrease in the magnetic moment from Gd to Yb. This is attributed to the decreasing number of unpaired electrons in the 4f orbitals of the heavy rare earth atoms. Interestingly, the system doped with Er atoms showed lower stability and anti-aromaticity, likely due to the involvement of the 4f orbitals in bonding. Conversely, the systems doped with Gd and Tb atoms stood out for their high magnetism and stability, making them potential building blocks for rare earth-doped semiconductor materials.

Abstract
In this work, we investigated the structural evolution, electronic and magnetic properties of Cr2 Gen - clusters for n = 15-20 by using density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Low-energy structures for these clusters were fully searched through a self-developed genetic algorithm code combined with DFT calculations. The calculations show that all the two Cr atoms prefer to stay together to form a strong CrCr bond, which-except for size 20-is shorter than the nearest neighbor distance in Cr bulk. Sizes 15 and 16 adopt a wheel-like structure as the structural motif with the extra Ge atoms capped on the top, while larger sizes (n = 17-20) prefer fullerene-like Cr2 @Ge12 motifs. From the results of the average binding energies of Cr2 Gen - , one can conclude that it is easier to form larger size clusters. In these lowest-lying isomers except for size 16, the two Cr atoms contribute opposite magnetic moments for the total magnetic moments of 1 μB , showing an antiferromagnetic state.

Abstract
A theoretical study of geometric and electronic structures, stability and magnetic properties of both neutral and anionic Ge16M0/- clusters with M being a first-row 3d transition metal atom, is performed using quantum chemical approaches. Both the isoelectronic Ge16Sc- anion and neutral Ge16Ti that have a perfect Frank-Kasper tetrahedral T d shape and an electron shell filled with 68 valence electrons, emerge as magic clusters with an enhanced thermodynamic stability. The latter can be rationalized by the simple Jellium model. Geometric distortions from the Frank-Kasper tetrahedron of Ge16M having more or less than 68 valence electrons can be understood by a Jahn-Teller effect. Remarkably, DFT calculations reveal that both neutral Ge16Sc and Ge16Cu can be considered as superhalogens as their electron affinities (≥3.6 eV) exceed the value of the halogen atoms and even that of icosahedral Al13. A detailed view of the magnetic behavior of Ge16M0/- clusters shows that the magnetic moments of the atomic metals remain large even when they are quenched upon doping. When M goes from Sc to Zn, the total spin magnetic moment of Ge16M0/- increases steadily and reaches the maximum value of 3 μ B with M = Mn before decreasing towards the end of the first-row 3d block metals. Furthermore, the IR spectra of some tetrahedral Ge16M are also predicted.

Abstract
A systematic structure and property investigation of MnGen - (n = 3-14) was conducted by means of density functional theory coupled with mass-selected anion photoelectron spectroscopy. This combined theoretical and experimental study allows global minimum and coexistence structures to be identified. It is found that the pentagonal bipyramid shape is the basic framework for the nascent growth process of MnGen - (n = 3-10), and from n = 10, the endohedral structures can be found. For n = 12, the anion MnGe12 - cluster probably includes two isomers: a major isomer with a puckered hexagonal prism geometry and a minor isomer with a distorted icosahedron geometry. Specifically, the puckered hexagonal prism isomer follows the Wade-Mingos rules and can be suggested as a new kind of superatom with the magnetic property. Furthermore, the results of adaptive natural density partitioning and deformation density analyses suggest a polar covalent interaction between Ge and Mn for endohedral clusters of MnGe12 -. The spin density and natural population analysis indicate that MnGen - clusters have high magnetic moments localized on Mn. The density of states diagram visually shows the significant spin polarization for endohedral structures and reveals the weak interaction between the Ge 4p orbital and the 4s, 3d orbitals of Mn.

Abstract
Several potential stable structures of X-doped magnesium (X = Ge, C, Sn) clusters have been fully investigated by using CALYPSO structure searching software together with density functional theory calculations. XMg n (X = Ge, C, Sn; n = 3-7) clusters have similar geometric structure grows in tetrahedron, while the structures of XMg n (X = Ge, C, Sn; n = 8-12) are based on a kind of tower-like geometry. Interestingly, the relative stability computations indicate that XMg8 (X = Ge, C, Sn) are more stable than other clusters, and thus can be identified as magic clusters. In addition, XMg8's (X = Ge, C, Sn) high stability and atomic interactions contained in structures are studied through their electronic localization function and molecular orbitals. It is shown that the covalent σ bond interaction of X-Mg and Mg-Mg are mainly responsible for their robust stability. Finally, the theoretical calculations of IR and Raman spectra of XMg8 (X = Ge, C, Sn) clusters were implemented for guiding further experimental observation.

Abstract
Cationic zirconium-doped nitrogen clusters were produced by laser ablation of a Zr : BN mixture target and were detected by TOF mass spectrometry. It is found that the mass peak of the ZrN12+ cluster is dominant in the spectrum. The ZrN12+ cluster was further dissociated with 266 nm photons. Extensive structure searches of a cationic ZrN12+ cluster indicate that the ground state structure of ZrN12+ consists of a central Zr atom and six N2 pairs with Oh symmetry. The calculated binding energy of the ZrN12+ cluster is about 0.96 eV, which is in accordance with the result of the photodissociation experiment. The neutral ZrN12 cluster has almost the same geometry, but with D3h symmetry. NBO analysis showed that the molecular orbitals of ZrN12+/0 clusters are mainly composed of Zr 4d and N 2p orbitals. These findings provide rich information for understanding the geometries and the electronic properties of zirconium-doped N clusters, which will offer valuable guidance for the exploration of other metal doped nitrogen clusters.

Abstract
Geometries and electronic structures of germanium trimer clusters doped with titanium TiGe3 -/0 were studied making use of the complete active space self-consistent field followed by second-order perturbation theory explicitly correlated coupled cluster singles and doubles method with perturbative triples corrections CCSD(T)-F12 and Tao-Perdew-Staroverov-Scuseria methods. Two electronic states (2A' and 2A″) of the anion (pyramid shape) were determined to be nearly degenerate and energetically competing for the anionic ground state of TiGe3 -. These two anionic states are believed to be concurrently populated in the experiment and induce six observed anion photoelectron bands. Total 14 electronic transitions starting from the 2A' and 2A″ states were assigned to five out of six visible bands in the experimental anion photoelectron spectrum of TiGe3 -. Each band was proven to be caused by multiple one-electron detachments from two populated anionic states. The last experimental band with the highest detachment energy is believed to be the result of various inner one-electron removals.

Abstract
Bimetallic clusters have aroused increased attention because of the ability to tune their own properties by changing size, shape, and doping. In present work, a structural search of the global minimum for divalent bimetal Be2Mgn (n = 1-20) clusters are performed by utilizing CALYPSO structural searching method with subsequent DFT optimization. We investigate the evolution of geometries, electronic properties, and nature of bonding from small to medium-sized clusters. It is found that the structural transition from hollow 3D structures to filled cage-like frameworks emerges at n = 10 for Be2Mgn clusters, which is obviously earlier than that of Mgn clusters. The Be atoms prefer the surface sites in small cluster size, then one Be atom tend to embed itself inside the magnesium motif. At the number of Mg larger than eighteen, two Be atoms have been completely encapsulated by caged magnesium frameworks. In all Be2Mgn clusters, the partial charge transfer from Mg to Be takes place. An increase in the occupations of the Be-2p and Mg-3p orbitals reveals the increasing metallic behavior of Be2Mgn clusters. The analysis of stability shows that the cluster stability can be enhanced by Be atoms doping and the Be2Mg8 cluster possesses robust stability across the cluster size range of n = 1-20. There is s-p hybridization between the Be and Mg atoms leading to stronger Be-Mg bonds in Be2Mg8 cluster. This finding is supported by the multi-center bonds and Mayer bond order analysis.

Abstract
The structural, electronic and magnetic properties of dual Cr atoms doped germanium anionic clusters, [Formula: see text] (n = 3-14), have been investigated by using photoelectron spectroscopy in combination with density-functional theory calculations. The low-lying structures of [Formula: see text] are determined by DFT based genetic algorithm optimization. For [Formula: see text] with n ⩽ 8, the structures are bipyramid-based geometries, while [Formula: see text] cluster has an opening cage-like structure, and the half-encapsulated structure is gradually covered by the additional Ge atoms to form closed-cage configuration with one Cr atom interior for n = 10 to 14. Meanwhile, the two Cr atoms in [Formula: see text] clusters tend to form a Cr-Cr bond rather than be separated. Interestingly, the magnetic moment of all the anionic clusters considered is 1 μ B. Almost all clusters exhibit antiferromagnetic Cr-Cr coupling, except for two clusters, [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. To our knowledge, the [Formula: see text] cluster is the first kind of transition-metal doped semiconductor clusters that exhibit relatively stable antiferromagnetism within a wide size range. The experimental/theoretical results suggest high potential to modify the magnetic behavior of semiconductor clusters through introducing different transition-metal dopant atoms.

Abstract
The structural, electronic, and magnetic properties of FeGen-/0 (n = 3-12) clusters were investigated by using anion photoelectron spectroscopy in combination with density functional theory calculations. For both anionic and neutral FeGen (n = 3-12) clusters with n ≤ 7, the dominant structures are exohedral. The FeGe8-/0 clusters have half-encapsulated boat-shaped structures, and the opening of the boat-shaped structure is gradually covered by the additional Ge atoms to form Gen cage from n = 9 to 11. The structures of FeGe10-/0 can be viewed as two Ge atoms symmetrically capping the opening of the boat-shaped structure of FeGe8, and those of FeGe12-/0 are distorted hexagonal prisms with the Fe atom at the center. Natural population analysis shows that there is an electron transfer from the Ge atoms to the Fe atom at n = 8-12. The total magnetic moment of FeGen-/0 and local magnetic moment of the Fe atom have not been quenched.

Abstract
Dirhenium halide dianions received considerable attention in past decades due to the unusual metal-metal quadruple bond. The systematic structural evolution of dirhenium halide clusters has not been sufficiently studied and hence is not well-understood. In this work, we report an in-depth investigation on the structures and electronic properties of doubly charged dirhenium halide clusters Re2X82- (X = F, Cl, Br, I). Our computational efforts rely on the well-tested unbiased CALYPSO (Crystal structure AnaLYsis by Particle Swarm Optimization) method combined with density functional theory calculations. We find that all ground-state Re2X82- clusters have cube-like structures of D4h symmetry with two Re atoms encapsulated in halogen framework. The reasonable agreement between the simulated and experimental photoelectron spectrum of the Re2Cl82- cluster supports strongly the reliability of our computational strategy. The chemical bonding analysis reveals that the δ bond is the pivotal factor for the ground-state Re2X82- (X = F, Cl, Br, I) clusters to maintain D4h symmetric cube-like structures, and the enhanced stability of Re2Cl82- is mainly attributed to the chemical bonding of 5d orbital of Re atoms and 3p orbital of Cl atoms.

Abstract
The structural, electronic and magnetic properties of the (FeC)n (n = 1–8) clusters are studied using the unbiased CALYPSO structure search method and density functional theory. A combination of the PBE functional and 6–311 + G* basis set is used for determining global minima on potential energy surfaces of (FeC)n clusters. Relatively stabilities are analyzed via computing their binding energies, second order difference and HOMO-LUMO gaps. In addition, the origin of magnetic properties, spin density and density of states are discussed in detail, respectively. At last, based on the same computational method, the structures, magnetic properties and density of states are systemically investigated for the 3d (V, Cr, Mn and Co) atom doped (FeC)8 cluster.

Abstract
The global minima of both neutral and anionic clusters of VGe3-/0 were determined using different quantum chemical methods (DFT, RCCSD(T), CASSCF/CASPT2). On the basis of the ground states identified, most excited bands in the anion photoelectron spectrum of VGe3- were assigned. The tetrahedral isomers of both charged states are the most stable ones. A singlet state (Cs, 1A') of the tetrahedral isomer has the globally lowest energy on the potential hypersurface of VGe3-. Two states 12A' and 12A″ of the neutral tetrahedral isomer are nearly degenerate and identified as the competing ground state of VGe3. From the anionic ground state, four of five bands in the anion photoelectron spectrum of VGe3- were determined to be the consequences of one-electron transitions starting from the anionic ground state 1A'. Both nearly degenerate neutral ground states are responsible for generation of the first band. Two different transitions from the anionic ground state 1A' to the first two nearly degenerate excited states (22A' and 22A″) of the neutral underlie the second lowest ionization band. Two higher levels of ionization recorded in the spectrum were assigned to the two higher excited states 42A' and 52A' of the neutral. Franck-Condon factor simulations of the first band were performed to obtain more insights into the experimental bands of the spectrum.

Abstract
ABSTARCT The stability and reactivity of clusters are closely related to their valence electronic configuration. Doping is a most efficient method to modify the electronic configuration and properties of a cluster. Considering that Cu and S posses one and six valence electrons, respectively, the S doped Cu clusters with even number of valence electrons are expected to be more stable than those with odd number of electrons. By using the swarm intelligence based CALYPSO method on crystal structural prediction, we have explored the structures of neutral and charged Cun+1 and CunS (n = 1-12) clusters. The electronic properties of the lowest energy structures have been investigated systemically by first-principles calculations with density functional theory. The results showed that the clusters with a valence count of 2, 8 and 12 appear to be magic numbers with enhanced stability. In addition, several geometry-related-properties have been discussed and compared with those results available in the literature.

Abstract
Electronic structures of both the anionic and neutral triatomic species TiGe2-/0 were theoretically studied employing single-reference (DFT and RCCSD(T)) and multiconfigurational (CASSCF/CASPT2 and CASSCF/NEVPT2) methods with large basis sets. The ground state of TiGe2- (C2v) was identified to be 4B1, but the 2A1 state is nearly degenerate, whereas the 3B1 is clearly the ground state of the neutral TiGe2 (C2v). On the basis of the computed ground and excited states of both neutral and anionic structures, all electronic transitions giving rise to experimental anion photoelectron bands in the spectrum of TiGe2- can now be assigned. The X band of the anion photoelectron spectrum is attributed to a one-electron transition between two ground states 4B1 → 3B1. Three neutral excited states 23A2, 25B1, and 35B1 are energetically responsible for the B band upon one-electron photodetachement from the anionic ground state 4B1. The C band is assigned to the transition 4B1 → 25A1. A transition from the nearly degenerate ground state 2A1 of the anion to the low-spin 1A1 of the final neutral state can be ascribed to the A band. Furthermore, the first two bands' progressions, whose normal vibrational modes were accessible from CASSCF/CASPT2 calculations, were also simulated by determination of multidimensional Franck-Condon factors.

Abstract
Understanding the structural evolution of materials is a challenging problem of condensed matter physics. Solving this problem would open new ways for understanding the behaviors of materials. In this context, we here report unbiased structure searches for a prototypical perovskite oxide, PbTiO3, based on the CALYPSO (Crystal structure AnaLYsis by Particle Swarm Optimization) method in conjunction with first-principles calculations. For the first time, we decipher the structure evolution of PbTiO3 from a zero dimensional (0D) cluster to a two dimensional (2D) layered structure and in the end to a three dimensional (3D) bulk solid. Our unbiased structure search is successful in reproducing the cubic Pm3[combining macron]m and tetragonal P4mm phases of PbTiO3 at ambient pressure. We also predict a new quasi-planar kite shape structure of the PbTiO3 cluster, with Cs symmetry and a surprisingly large HOMO-LUMO gap. Furthermore, by using this method, we predict that the 2D planar PbTiO3 monolayer is unstable in the perpendicular direction and the 2D PbTiO3 double layer is dynamically stable, with a hope that it can provide guidance to future synthesis of low dimensional perovskite oxides.
